After my PB (http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=1139205), I decide to make a quick project, so after almost 10 days of work I manage to finish the 2012 Nürburgring edition of the Fujimi's SLS GT3.
I use studio27 decals, but I paint the orange areas and then I weathered it.
So here the result...

Off course not a serious build, with many mistakes, but I made it just for fun and publish it to tell me what you think about it.

Thank you for your time.

Best regards
George

Looks great to me! So nice to see a realistic, weathered-looking car rather than the show queens most people build...

Superb work. Never easy to commit and go for the weathering but it is definitely worth it.

wow, also George making some quick build (and quick mess..like I am doing right now :D)

I honestly like a lot weathered cars, mostly cause all racers are "operative" such way. Never an easy job to make theme realistic, the nicest ever seen here is the incredible porsche made by Jochen.

Great job again George, my tip would be only to add the shade of the wipers. It makes very very realistic effect with few effort :) try it !

Wow, very nice result in a such a short time.
weathering is realistic but now, this SLS just need a little diorama!

Can wait for the new SLS. Come on Fujimi.
Great weathering. A diorama may improve your result.
